About this work

An engraved illustration depicts a wedding ceremony in a Gothic-arched interior, where a bride in a white veil and a groom in period costume join hands while a clergyman stands between them. Richly dressed onlookers surround the couple, and a kneeling figure appears in the lower right. The image accompanies the printed text of the Form of Solemnization of Matrimony, Book of Common Prayer, 1843, p. 370, attributed to Richard Westall.
